It&#8217;s filled with winning scenes such as the would-be-killer asking if the victim Believed in Jesus before shooting them, just to make sure that they won&#8217;t go to hell before they&#8217;re shot.\u00a0 Or the heroin defiantly proclaiming to a trick that she gets &#8220;claustrophobic sucking strange c**k&#8221;.\u00a0 Again, it&#8217;s a winner.\u00a0 Just make sure you bring the PBR for this one.<\/p>\n<p>The thing that saved that night was the post-game out at the George &amp; Dragon, and then on to Nectar where we got our Salsa grooves on.\u00a0 Over and over again I&#8217;m impressed with how much fun Firewallender is to dance with, and how awesome her friends are.\u00a0 It&#8217;s really making me look forward to Lindy Hop lessons with her and her friends starting this Sunday!<\/p>\n<p>Wow&#8230; too much detail.\u00a0 Speeding things up, since then there has been (not in any order):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>some awesome front-porch girllage<\/li>\n<li>the witnessing of my best friend falling head-over-heals<\/li>\n<li>the discovery of a totally awesome kickball league<\/li>\n<li>some wonderfully nice (and hot and sweaty) swing dancing<\/li>\n<li>a few fantastic evening meal with friends<\/li>\n<li>a free concert at the Triple Door to see the Old-97&#8217;s w\/ Abby<\/li>\n<li>some Pike Place wanderage with Abby<\/li>\n<li>the viewing of a &#8220;Dykes vs. Queers&#8221; Softball game (I heart Capitol Hill)<\/li>\n<li>my year anniversary of employment at M$.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It&#8217;s at this point that I realize why I&#8217;m not finding time to work out as much as I used to&#8230; I&#8217;m a busier cat than I realized!\u00a0 And, heck, I didn&#8217;t even really say much about how much work is draining me.\u00a0 Kinda makes me wanna go home right now and nap, but instead tonight we&#8217;re celebrating the Maj&#8217;s birthday with homemade Indian food and some retro 80&#8217;s dancing.\u00a0 Onward!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a catch-up post.\u00a0 I&#8217;ll fill in details later when there is time.\u00a0 It&#8217;s not that I haven&#8217;t had much to say, quite the opposite.\u00a0 It&#8217;s more that I&#8217;ve been too wore out to say much of anything because life has been keep&#8217;n me pretty busy&#8230; but I had some time on the bus &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/damn-good-busy\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">damn good &amp; busy<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,8],"tags":[49,25,30,85,84,86],"class_list":["post-129","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-personal","category-seattle","tag-capitol-hill","tag-dancing","tag-m","tag-salsa","tag-swing","tag-this-american-life"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=129"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/129\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=129"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=129"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kmwoley.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=129"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
